They now have a discover option on it that introduces you to new bands that sound similar or have connections to the ones you currently listen to. I've found two new bands that I really like in the past week

Well he wrote some of his best in DBT while drinking. I think it's less about sobriety and more about getting his life back together post-DBT. I think he had to get sober to do that though. So my guess is both yes and no

im guessing a little less pressure than when he first went out on his own too, plus more experience creating an album instead of just a couple songs for one, all coupled with getting his own head straight is a big part.

with DBT a lot of his best was, yes while drinking, but when his life was in a fairly upward trajectory still. it seems like he is back in that upward trajectory.

I think its a good record and all, but..... IMO I feel like several of the tracks sound like they we're taken straight from a Ryan Adams record...i mean does "Stockholm" not sound exactly like "Answering Bell"

As much as I love the album and the song, Super 8 sticks out like a sore thumb on the album and throws the whole mood off. He probably should've kept it as a b-side or something but I'm old-fashioned and like to experience an album as more than just a collection of songs.
